6 impending free agents for Chiefs to watch in playoffs vs. Browns

The Arizona Cardinals are not in the postseason and look ahead to free agency. The Kansas City Chiefs have a number of players set to hit free agency. Who are some who could be of interest for the Cardinals or could be good fits?

Here are a few.


RB Le'Veon Bell

Bell has been in decline since he was probably the best running back in the game. Since joining the Chiefs, he averaged four yards a carry. He still has not turned 30 and he would be reuniting with his running backs coach from the Steelers, James Saxon.

WR Demarcus Robinson

One might think Sammy Watkins would be the better impending free agent to look at, but Robinson might not come with the price tag that Watkins will and Robinson was better in 2020. Robinson had more catches, yards and touchdowns than Watkins.

CB Bashaud Breeland

Breeland has been a free agent of interest in past years. He will be 29 years old next season and the Cardinals need cornerbacks. He has had two interceptions in each of the last three seasons and at least two in six of his seven seasons.

DT Mike Pennel

The Cardinals, other than Jordan Phillips, have a young defensive line. Pennel has been a rotational player and can play multiple positions on the line, including a true nose tackle, giving the Cardinals more veteran option than Leki Fotu, who will enter his second season.

OL Daniel Kilgore

Kilgore isn't a starter now but has started. He is 33 years old and has experience at center and guard. He could be a guy to fill the role Max Garcia had the last couple seasons, especially if there is a starting role for both Mason Cole and Lamont Gaillard, depending on how things play out in the offseason.

Reiter is the starter for the Chiefs at center. He could be a possibility if the Cardinals believe they need to pursue a starter in free agency instead of continuing with Cole or moving on to Gaillard.
